Rabbi Shai Held

Agree with a sentiment about Kid Rock but maybe, just maybe, in this day and age, we could stop using the word "pharisaical" in this crudely antisemitic way?

@ShadowofEzra Tell me you know nothing about how religion actually works without using those words.

Israeli historian Yuval Harari said at the World Economic Forum that artificial intelligence will eventually take over all religious texts. He predicts that AI will control every major world religion, including Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. Harari pointed out that Judaism defines itself as the religion of the book, granting ultimate authority to words rather than to people. “What happens when the greatest expert on the holy book is an AI?”

Save the Date: Nov 12, 2025 Join us at Northeastern Seminary and Roberts Wesleyan University for “Do Jews and Christians Love the Same Way?” an evening dialogue with Rabbi Shai Held, one of today’s leading Jewish thinkers, with a Christian response from Dr. Richard Middleton.

If you missed our recent event with Rabbi Shai Held discussing his book "Judaism Is About Love: Recovering the Heart of Jewish Life," now you can watch it at your convenience! Rabbi Held is joined in conversation with Dr. Jerome Creach, Robert C. Holland Professor of Old Testament at PTS. Together they share their mutual scholarly interest in the Hebrew Bible, and consider how each of their traditions—Judaism and Christianity—are religions of love rooted in these Scriptures.

Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you @POTUS, Congress, and the American people. Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.

We need Rabbi Shai Held's @HeldShai message today more than ever. #Judaism is About Love. I'm going to read his book in the honor and remembrance of the love of Shiri, Ariel & Kfir Bibas, and Am Yisrael's love for the Bibas family. 🇮🇱🧡🧡🧡🇮🇱youtu.be/gP9dgxuFaeg?si…

@dddale I'm very sorry for your loss.

I Lost my beautiful sweet beloved wife yesterday after a 5 year long battle with Cancer. I hate Cancer

My @OnScriptPodcast interview with @HeldShai on his book JUDAISM IS ABOUT LOVE. It's a little off the OnScript path, but such a powerful exploration of the concept we flatten too quickly. onscript.study/podcast/shai-h…
